A five paragraph article is easy enough to fake.

An Indian space agency on the other hand....
That's another implausible NASA structured conspiracy.

That's another implausible NASA structured conspiracy.

Every Indian telemarketer, headhunter, programmer, businessman, banker, and salesman I've ever met only seemed to care about making as much money as possible.

Why should the Indian Space Agency be any different?

How is that racist? 

Many societies focus on making as much money as possible.

One word:  Bigot.

It's true that it is not technically racist.  However, it does show a very deep underlying ignorance of foreigners, especially from the emerging Third World.  My experience is that Indian people are incredibly motivated in what ever they do: Professionally, domestically, spiritually and nationalistically.  However there are always bad eggs in every batch, be it US, Indian, Chinese, etc.

Tom has only seen one side of this; His arrogance does not allow him to see the world through other people's eyes; Scientifically or socially.  This type of closed attitude only seeks to enforce the world's disdain for US foreign policy.

I feel misled, I opened this thread thinking that all of  India had somehow been blasted into orbit.

I will report you to the mods for false advertising if you do it again!

This may be a good story for debate.

It would appear you were mistaken.

India is now in orbit of the Moon. This may be a good story for debate.

Hum billiga toom jute.

I just read the news. I must say, there is a surprisingly small number of photographs of Moon's surface. Besides, everyone knows that the space race was just a runaway toy project for the scientists of the Cold War Era who were designing ICMBs. Since India pretends to be a nuclear power, this is the next logical step. By the way, I saw something about taking a share in the lucrative satellite launch business.
